The late afternoon setting sun winter light gave a strange look to this Snowy photo.

The foreground snow retained a blue cool (despite a slight magenta tint) look while the bird and background give off more of a warm golden glow.

Canon 5D Mark III with the 500L f4 lens offhand @ 1/1000, f4.5, ISO 400, + 1/2 exposure compensation. Highlights slider in Camera Raw pulled to the left to extract and protect details in the Snowy's face and the snow disturbed by the takeoff. Colours unchanged except for increase in contrast. Some white reflective spots cloned away from the snow.

Cheers,

Mike
